INTEGRATED PATHOLOGY EXPERTISE
Specialist pathology support for clinical decision-making
When tissue or cell-based diagnosis is needed, you need clear reporting, specialist interpretation and access to expertise when cases are more complex.
Our pathology teams work alongside physicians, hospitals and specialist clinics to support diagnosis, disease classification, therapy-relevant decisions and patient follow-up. Where needed, pathology insights can be integrated with clinical laboratory testing, genetics and radiology to provide a more complete diagnostic perspective.
Pathology at a glance
Pathology services and expertise
Our pathology portfolio covers tissue- and cell-based diagnostics, molecular methods and digital workflows to support routine cases and more complex diagnostic questions.
Diagnostics for biopsies and surgical specimens across a broad range of indications, supporting diagnosis, tumour classification, grading, staging and clinically relevant reporting for patient management.
Cytology expertise for cervical and non-gynaecological samples, supporting screening, infection-related questions and the assessment of suspicious or abnormal cellular changes.
Molecular and biomarker testing to support tumour characterisation and therapy-relevant decisions, with integration into pathology workflows where additional diagnostic information is needed.
Broad immunohistochemical panels to support diagnostic differentiation, tumour classification and the assessment of prognostic or therapy-relevant markers.
Digital slide workflows that support collaboration between pathology teams, access to subspecialist expertise and efficient case review, including second opinions where needed.
Selected molecular monitoring solutions, including ctDNA-based approaches, to support follow-up, treatment-response assessment and recurrence monitoring where clinically appropriate.
AI-SUPPORTED PATHOLOGY
Digital and AI-enabled workflows in daily pathology practice
We use digital pathology and AI-supported tools, including Ibex Galen™, to support pathologists in selected cases. Slides are scanned into high-resolution digital images, enabling remote access, streamlined workflows and easier collaboration.
AI tools analyse these images to highlight patterns and areas of interest, helping prioritise regions for closer review. Used alongside expert pathologists, they support efficiency, consistency and diagnostic confidence, contributing to high-quality, clinically relevant reporting.
MOLECULAR ONCOLOGY MONITORING
Signatera™ for molecular residual disease monitoring
Signatera™ is a personalised, tumour-informed ctDNA test for monitoring molecular residual disease in selected solid tumours. It is customised to each patient’s tumour profile, enabling highly specific detection of tumour DNA in the blood.
By tracking tumour-specific DNA signals in the blood over time, it can provide additional molecular information to support recurrence risk assessment, treatment-response monitoring and follow-up discussions where clinically appropriate.
